It is very important for individuals to learn to be creative especially in this high-tech day in age. In today's world, most jobs require much more thought than strength like they did years ago. Most new jobs require people to be creative on the computer. People need to be creative to be able to succeed in today's job market. Companies compete for new employees who are great at coming up with new, crazy and creative ideas to help their company excel and stand out in today's highly competitive job market. .
I also believe that having studied art and the creative process that individuals look at the world a little differently. When people have studied drawing or painting they realize just how complex and beautiful the world is around them. They look at a mountain, stream, rainbow, or valley as a very beautiful thing. They learn to notice and appreciate all the rich colors and textures that nature creates all around them. They also see the human body as Gods own work of art. That every human being is a unique piece of art and that we have been sculpted this way by God. That the imperfections people have are not defects but more what makes them unique. Individuals learn to observe the beauty in everything all around them by studying art.
I also think that we study the creative process so we learn to think more in-depth about all things in life, not just those that are art related. I think that it allows us to think more when we hear a song or look at a certain piece of artwork. Instead of just listening to the words of a song, people that have studied music think about the tone, pitch, style, and rhythm that a particular song has. Or instead of just seeing a piece of artwork for what it looks at first, people dig deeper into their mind and see what the piece of art is saying deeper than just on the surface level. I think the same holds true in other parts of the world as well.
